comment on the actual arithmetic for splitting a weekly mg total into two draws, worked example in c/tirzepatide · 44 points · 2 days ago

which is an argument for reconstituting with a slightly higher concentration if you're going to split, fewer total units drawn means dead space eats a smaller fraction

comment on [Log] six months of 0.125mg bumps, the full boring spreadsheet in c/dosinglogs · 28 points · 3 days ago

which is the actual argument for a more concentrated reconstitution specifically for this style of dosing, fewer total units per draw means the fixed dead-space loss eats less of the total

comment on [Method] the gradient everyone uses for sema and why it under-resolves the des-amido in c/hplc · 5 points · 3 days ago

state the method: column, gradient, detection wavelength, injection volume

Disagree on that part. 98.7% and 98.3% on the same vial is normal.

comment on [Failure] 61.2% purity on a vial i had already been using for six weeks in c/darkspot · 19 points · 6 days ago

no piling on, mistake posts are favours to the community

comment on [Correction] you cannot report area% to two decimals off that baseline in c/hplc · -34 points · 6 days ago

A shoulder on the main peak that 4 analysts integrated 6 different ways. Same trace, 98.6 spread.

comment on [Results] 61 weeks, 34kg, one very boring spreadsheet in c/semaglutide · 28 points · 11 days ago

the 2.4mg dose is not the target, it is just what the pen goes up to

comment on came off reta after 14 weeks. here is the honest version. in c/retatrutide · 130 points · 12 days ago

Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.

comment on [Caution] "just start at 2mg" is the worst advice in this community in c/retatrutide · 0 points · 14 days ago

the weight curves are unusually steep, which makes predicting individual response harder

comment on compounded vs pen — anyone actually notice a difference at the same mg in c/semaglutide · 9 points · 14 days ago

Cosigning. The slow route gets the outcome, the fast route gets you the side effects.

What was the dosing schedule in that arm?

comment on stopped losing at 1.7 so i went to 2.4 and lost nothing faster in c/semaglutide · 20 points · 23 days ago

nope, 0.25 counts, it is just not the dose most people stay on

comment on what changed for me between week 15 and week 64 in c/researchpeptides · 54 points · 24 days ago

Strongly agree. Evidence level matters.

comment on someone explain chromatogram to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/hplc · 1 points · 1 months ago

related substances are where the story lives, not the main peak

comment on [Side Effects] the sulphur burps are real and they do pass in c/semaglutide · 19 points · 1 months ago

my ferritin moved before the scale did and i nearly missed it

permalink

comment on went back down from 2.4 to 1.7 and lost more. explain that in c/semaglutide · 1 points · 1 months ago

Small correction: the trial was 14 weeks, not 9.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 92 weeks to accept.

permalink

comment on [Failure] two years in, stopped for financial reasons, regained most of it in c/darkspot · 6 points · 1 months ago

Small correction: the trial was 5 weeks, not 38.

Disagree on that part. 99.0% and 98.9% on the same vial is normal.

comment on TRIUMPH: what the trials say vs what this community says in c/retatrutide · 16 points · 1 months ago

nobody should be giving this to anyone without extensive monitoring

permalink

comment on [Meta] the 15mg rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/tirzepatide · 12 points · 1 months ago

the 15mg is the top of the pen, not the required dose

permalink

comment on STEP 1 was -14.9% average and i keep having to remind myself average means average in c/semaglutide · 0 points · 1 months ago

titration speed is food noise plus side effects, period
